Why are bellows used at the steam turbine exhaust connection?

Bellows are used at the steam turbine exhaust connection to accommodate thermal expansion and movement of the system. As steam turbines operate under varying temperature conditions, the components expand and contract. Bellows help absorb these movements, preventing stress and potential damage to the piping system. Additionally, they ensure a leak-proof seal and maintain system integrity by compensating for misalignments or vibrations. At NCON Turbines, we understand the importance of reliable components like bellows in ensuring optimal turbine performance and longevity, which is why we provide high-quality solutions tailored to meet operational needs.
